Paylocity provides 24/7 access to your online payroll and human resource data management. Paylocity offers highly customizable payroll functionality, as well as HR, benefits administration, and time and talent management programs.
Any organization that is collecting any kind of data in the field, especially if they're using paper forms, should strongly consider switching to AT&T if only for their Wireless Forms. Wireless Forms is the most powerful tool in AT&T Workforce Manager. Combine that with Timekeeping and Intelligent Tracking to really improve efficiency and accountability.
Paylocity is well suited to work with any size organization. I work for a public local government agency who has specific needs, and they were able to meet our expectations. We were appreciative of the work around suggestions that were provided to meet our needs and have a user-friendly system for our employees
It is currently not possible to create mass geofence alerts. Alerts need to be created per geofence. This can be a big undertaking for organizations with many addresses.
We most likely will because we are learning how to use it better all the time. It does integrate with our Advanced Benefits. But the customer service is not responsive when needing help. It almost always requires several contacts to get anywhere, and the contacts can be several days apart. Once you actually get to TALK to someone, things are usually resolved fairly quickly, but their email system is not efficient. I get half answers and they close the ticket! But once I can get to someone, it is almost always great service. Very hard to get someone though.
I find Paylocity to be almost too robust so that its functionalities are sometimes too complex to use. Sometimes it appears that they don't get a user's experience and keep a software developers mindset which doesn't always work well with users that are not at their technical level of expertise. A perfect example is the way the payroll dashboard USED to look compared to the recent update
I can always call the direct number and there is a representative always available to answer questions. I can also email the service desk for Paylocity or my representative and they are pretty quick to respond if we are having issues
We had some minor hiccups throughout the year but they have all been fixable. Paylocity integrates well with our 401k provider, Principal, and our benefits, OneDigital. It makes it simple to house everything and have it all connected. It doesn't slow anything down to have Principal integrated. It makes it more efficient
The customer experience/service department and technical support teams work through any situations that arise. They are responsive and provide excellent service.
As the recruiter, I don't use support much, but my manager, the HR Director, uses it quite a bit. Early on she told me that it took a while for support to get back to her. That has gotten better, but it seems like they could be quicker in addressing challenges that come up
I didn't have in-person training, but I'm sure it was just as great as any other training/assistance Paylocity provides. Paylocity customer service is always available. You never have to be on hold and their answers are always accurate and timely. Documents in the help section are helpful as well. My in-person training was conducted y one of our employees who was involved in the initial set-up and training of all employees. She was excellent.
The training was live online, but was with a group of other companies. We did not receive any personalized training with our team. Whenever we would ask for training, we would be sent a peak article link or a video. It felt like the reps we dealt with didn't know the answer to the questions.
We were handed off to multiple implementation people, some quit, one went on leave, one left suddenly, one was transfered to a diff dept...all causing a significant amount of disruption for our team. Many had conflicting info on how to properly set things up...hence a complete mess was left for us to figure out
Paylocity offered great interfaces; ease of implementation; cost effective options; immediate partnership; and 360 integration for tools like 401k. It was a clear choice for HR, and it was strongly supported by our executive team. We receive positive feedback from our hourly employees. Some of the functionality in the app still needs to be updated. For example: time off requests come through as an email. Our managers used to be able to simply click on the email to approve. Now, we have to log into Paylocity to find time off area. It will come in time due to practice but it is cumbersome now.
Our main function for Paylocity is payroll, data insights for employee working hours and onboarding. This has been a very reliable source for us for these functions. Payroll has been extremely easy to do using Paylocity. The onboarding process is very simple for new hires and makes the process run smooth. It is easy to find the information you are looking for while on Paylocity.
They are thorough, care about quality and success, take the time needed to implement properly, answer questions, build data feeds. A professional, caring, very skilled team there.
With AT&T Workforce Manager I've helped government and private organizations save money by identifying idle time in fleets, reducing data collection time in the field, and cutting on employees padding their timesheets.
Over time it has helped our retention. The ease of use and things like Community keep employees engaged.
We had over 500 employees, 20 locations, and 2 people can easily manage the entire HR process, from job posting, recruiting, training, onboarding, payroll processing and more.
Data Insights is very useful looking at our overall costs, trends, and we use it to better manage labor costs.
